MPX / MPZ series Low frequencies to 32 GHz Phase Modulators Modulator The MPX-LN and MPZ-LN series make up the most comprehensive range of electro-optic phase modulators available on the market for the 1550 nm wavelength band. The MPZ-LN series are ideally suited for high bandwidth operation at 10 GHz, 20 GHz and up to 40 GHz. Features High Bandwidth > 32 GHz C & L bands Low insertion loss Low VS Applications For lower frequencies up to 05 GHz, the MPX-LN series offers the unparalleled stability of x-cut devices. Finally, the MPX-LN-0.1 has a high impedance input optimized for frequencies below 150 MHz. Designed using state-of-the-art and proven lithium niobate technology, MPX-LN and MPZ-LN phase modulators are easy to operate and to integrate. They offer high performance for all state of the art applications.
